Nagai, Setsuko

May 30, 2024

Date of Service: June 22, 2024

SETSUKO “SETS” NAGAI passed away peacefully in Lethbridge, AB on Thursday, May 30, 2024 at the age of 93 years.

She was predeceased by her husband Bill, and survived by her sister, many nieces, nephews, grand nieces and grand nephews in Canada and Japan.

Sets was best known as a dedicated farm wife but she was also a competitive and sharp-witted card player, a skilled gardener and a master cook whose Japanese food was the heart of many family memories.

Despite many hardships, including living in Japan during the war and Alberta farm life, she was a constant and unrushed presence. Full of wisdom and quick to crack a joke, she had an infectious smile and a laugh that would fill the room.

Thanks to the Staff at the Pemmican Lodge, Dr. Adeyeri, and the Homecare team for your care and attention.

She will be remembered by family and friends with a private service and burial on Saturday, June 22 at 11:00 A.M.
